Mrs. Joran and her talented daughters,
Lula, Pauline and Elise, leave on the
Australia to-day for San Francisco, car
rying with them many warm alohas.
During their stay here they have given
us most delightful series of concerts
and have charmed every one who at
tended them with their brilliant per-
formances of the works of the great mas
tiers. This is probably their last visit to
Honolulu, though We hope not. They
have made no plans for the future, and
remain undecided as to their movements
until after their arrival in San Francisco.
Socially they have made hosts of friends.
We join in wishing them very pleasant
voyage and much success in the future.

We are sorry that Signor Roselli, the
baritone has not had an opportunity to
display his capabilities in English or
Italian opera during his stay her. He
is perfectly at home on the stage, and
feels out of place on the concert plat
form. He leaves to-day on the Aus
tralia, and it is probable that he vii re-
main in San Francisco for some time, as
an offer has been made him to sing in
opera there. If we mistake not he will
make hit He has made many friends
in this city during his brief stay, all of
whom will wish him a pleasant voyage
and a successful future.

AIilitary Marriage in France.
From the PalI MnlI Gszette.

The military marriage in France is q
serious affair. 1t is said that fifteen years
of peace has developed craving after
the bonheur CoDjugsl among young Off
GERS, but the ridiculous obstacles and
fOrmalities surrounding the ceremony are
formidable barrier TO any officer wish
ing TO marry. Having made up
his his mind on the subject, which,
bOWeYer, has very little to do with it, he
infOralS his colonel of his Intentions.
The Colonel passes the word of to the
War Office, and at length is put before
the Minister. The first thing then TO be
done is to find out if the young lady con-
Cerned fultiIls the requirements of the
law, which lay down that she must have
an irreLr aCha0le moral charE Cter, and a
DOT worth 8 yearly revenue Of I0,G00l.
The unfortunate young mans ap-
plicatiOn begins TO ascend the ladder #
OfffCialism until breaches the officer COM
manding the gendarmie in the district
where the Ctti ,er's tiance resides. It is
then passed TO g gendarmie, VINO is com
missiOned TO inquire into the young Iady's
moral character. He proceeds eau
tiously as detective. Should he
happen to know the father # the de-
mOISeIIS Indicated he goes anu sees
him; if not, he culls his information
from the ne,ghbOrs. He will even follow
her when she goes 10 theaters or enter
tainments. Having finished his investi-
cations, he draws up report on strictly
police court lines, wherein he talks Of
the young lady not "a mademoiselle, brit
as file. OFF goes the document on it's
way upward through the bureaus and red
tape until it gets to the War Minister.
Should the condition be fulfilled the
officer is permitted to marry. If not ne
must renOunce his intentions. If the
fancee has morality, but not money, it
must be raised before union is sane
toned. Officers with means frequently
provide the dot secretly themselves. II
is needless to say that there is not the
same rigorous inquiry into the moral
character of the officers.
